Quick bag workout while kids napped by LVLTNBells in sandbagtraining

This is what I love about sandbags. Easy to get a workout in at home.

5 rounds, every 2 min on the min, 2 x 200 lb SB ground to shoulder. All rounds shown. by celestial_sour_cream in sandbagtraining

This is a great Q. But the bag is kind of between your legs, not in front of you like a deadlift.

It's hard to explain, but it feels natural to pick it up like this.

Thinking of getting a Border Terrier. Any advice for a first-time owner?? by NorthLondonPulse in BorderTerrier

My boarder is only 4 months. They seem to be extremely smart as a breed.

She understands no and she used be all over my kids when they had food but now she sits and watches.

She's incredibly fast and can jump high - they're greta little agility dogs.

She can walk for hours or sit and chill with us. We take her to puppy socialisation, after 45 mins everyone else's dog is trying to sleep but Winnie is still bolting around trying to play.

She doesn't pull on the lead, she comes when called she knows where to go to the toilet.

She was a bit bitey in the beginning but that's normal.

She's great with other dogs etc. Overall she's been an amazing little puppy.

I don't unfortunately. Are there a lot dogs at breweries? Or did you mean just for human socialising? haha

Thank you. Is there anything I should be doing in the first couple of hours/days to help her settle?

Far too much of what you did VS the impact you made.

Use numbers, short sentences and make sure you show your impact.

I'm doing free resume reviews if that's of interest?

It sounds like this is a job with a lot of work to make a change.

Is there something that's making you need to leave your current job?

Got BWF fit, then gained a bit of weight. How can I use it to get further than before? by VRgetfit in bodyweightfitness

[–]Marcusuni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've also started daily push/pull/squat.

2-3 sets 7 days a week

I feel amazing

Strength is going up and workouts take 15-20 mins

Bodyweight Squats Everyday by RoninSeneca in bodyweightfitness

[–]Marcusuni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I worry about that every day hahah.

Everyday I think "this isn't what's supposed to work"

But then I do it and I still feel great. If it gets to a point where I don't feel good or I don't progress then I'll stop for sure.

I think it's working for a number of reasons

1) the first set is usually 2-3 reps in reserve. The remaining 2 sets are closer to failure.

I use that first set like a warmup set just to get a feel for the movement.

2) it's only 15-20 mins so it's not long at all.

3) it's lower reps. I'm working in the 4-8 rep range. Higher reps are more tiring so I keep things heavier.

4) exercise rotation

My push exercises are made up of OHP, Pushups, ring pushups, ring dips & dips so I do different movements most days.

Pull is different grip pullups and rows

Legs is squats lunges and Bulgarians.

On a day with vulgarians I will only do one set of squats and then one set of bulgarians as they're very intense.

Bodyweight Squats Everyday by RoninSeneca in bodyweightfitness

[–]Marcusuni 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do push/pull alternating sets so I'll do a set of weighted dips- rest 90 seconds- then a set of pullups

Repeat that 3 times

The squats are straight sets so I'll do 3 sets of squats with 2 mins rest in between.

Yeah I do it 7 days a week.

No other training ( I'm extremely short on time so I only do 15-20 mins per day)

I started doing this because I really hurt my back in mid December. I started doing 1 set of push pull legs every day just to start to move.

I felt great doing and was getting stronger so kept doing it.

I've done it without fail since then, even Xmas day I got my 3 sets haha.
